Kenneth Lowman, Broker/Owner of Luxury Homes of Las Vegas recorded a sale for $5,100,000 on September 21, 2007 . The home is located in the exclusive double gated Promontory at The Ridges, a Summerlin village on the west side of Las Vegas . A local retired gaming executive made the all cash purchase, closing escrow in six business days. “This sale shows how solid the ultra-luxury market is in Las Vegas and where it may be headed,” Lowman remarked. Lowman marketed the home for 81 days prior to entering escrow. The home had been on the market previously with two other well known Brokers but did not sell. “This truly was a unique custom home containing a half court basketball court and gym in the basement, a third floor observation deck, a game and theatre room, as well as 6 Bedrooms and 7 ½ Bathrooms. The home has awe inspiring views of Red Rock State Park and a golf course,” Lowman observed. NBA Star, Kevin Garnett, recently stayed in the home. Lowman attributed his sales success to a long-standing specialization in the luxury market, a target marketing plan that attracts wealthy Buyers (Kenneth’s last three sales have been to all cash Buyers) and a hard working team of assistants. “My Buyer’s specialist, Robin Stewart , did a phenomenal job demonstrating this property to the Buyer with just 15 minutes notice to prepare. My escrow coordinator, Kim Fry , efficiently handled the closing details to assure the quick six day close. Both the Buyer and Seller were very pleased with our efforts in this transaction.”
